Intradural rupture of lumbar intervertebral disc: report of three cases with review of the literature.

The intradural herniated disc is a rare complication of disc herniation. A study of the literature shows that this location is often responsible for severe neurological deficit with loss of sphincter control and a complete block shown on the myelogram. We report three cases to demonstrate the radioclinical interpretation of intradural herniated disc and the possibility of definite and misleading symptoms.

[Antero-internal approach to the lumbar spine].

Lumbar surgery is currently benefiting from the development of anterior approaches to the spine and the possibilities of body grafts. The transperitoneal approach is being replaced more a more by an extra-peritoneal approach which enables anterior access to the spine. The authors report an antero-internal approach for all the lumbar spine.

[Parietal multilocular arachnoid cysts in adults. 2 cases].

Two cases of multiloculated arachnoid cysts of the parietal area are discovered at the ages of 57 and 69. The terrain, the situation and the morphology, the evolution, distinguish these lesions from the more classic cysts of the sylvian fissure. Their pathophysiology is discussed anatomically, these cysts are not far from the post traumatic ones, developing in childhood.

[Neurinoma of the intracranial and intraspinal spinal nerve].

Two personal cases and a review of the literature permit to distinguish by anatomical, clinical and paraclinical aspects : neurilemmoma of the jugular foramen (type III), neurilemmoma of the bulbar spinal (type I), and of the medullary spinal (type II). This classification permits to choice surgical approach.

[Spinal fractures in children. Diagnostic and therapeutic problems. Apropos of 67 cases].

Between 1960 and 1980 the authors have observed 67 cases of spinal traumatism for children under 15 years old. Neurological deficit was present for 25 of these patients. At the first examination for 17 and after for 8. 5 children have total paraplegia without osteoligamentary lesions. The cervical traumatisms were without other injuries and were the result of minor trauma. The thoracolumbar traumatisms were accompanied by other injuries and were the result of violent trauma. Most of these lesions have been reduced by orthopedic method; only 4 children were operated because the dislocation was incoercible. The 15 children who presented total paraplegia had no recovery. For all the others, the recuperation was good.

[Fractures of the sacrum with neurologic complications. A case].

The fractures of sacrum are rare and the literature is poor on their etiopathological aspects and possible complications. According to a sacral transverse fracture with neurological complications by epidural hematoma we analyze the different mechanisms to obtain this one.

[Dorsal interapophyseal arthropathy and spinal cord compression in syringomyelia].

A dorsal spinal cord compression by exuberant arthropathy and osteophytes of the articular processes occurred in a 61 years old patient with syringomyelia. The clinical symptoms were related to postero lateral cord involvement and rapidly appeared after syringo-peritoneal shunting. C.T. scan precisely displayed the pathological process and the cord compression. Surgery enabled a definite amelioration of secondary sensory deficits. It was to our knowledge the first description of such an involvement of articular processes in syringomyelia.
